Probably the only thing that is needed is a further adherence to the Founders’ intents. I have heard that it wasn’t their intent to limit the numbers of congressmen, but had intended the number of congressmen to grow with the population.

It might sound wrong to send even more people to Washington than who currently stand, but try buying the influences of a senator or congressman if he was one of thousands sitting, instead of the approximate 500 that currently sit.
